Subject: Shay Bushinki's views on improvement by adding processors

A short quote from Shay Bushink's interview with Mig:

I'm not sure our dual Athlon at home would have done much worse. We were
somewhat tempted to use the dual because of some initial difficulties we had
with the new hardware, but it was a little better on the quad. The
eight-processor machine wouldn't have made much of a difference, although there
were a few indications that it would have been a bit better in a few situations.

Are there any users of this forum who run the deep versions of chess programs
(Fritz, Junior, Shredder, Crafty) on multi-processor PCs who can give opinions
on the performance boost they have observed?
